Fashion Shows
Ladies and Gentlemen today’s post is very special! Not since the 1984 Monsters of Rock tour (which featured AC/DC, Van Halen, Ozzy Osbourne and Motley Crue!) has there been a collaboration that could make the universe tremble with fear at the very thought of extreme powers combining for a greater good. Today I present you with a guest post for How to Impress a Hipster written by the incredibly funny brains at Awesome All Day! If Awesome All Day and How to Impress a Hipster were a sandwich then AAD would be the jelly and HTIH would be the peanut butter. That’s a good sandwich! If you enjoy the dry sarcasm and heartfelt search for truth and knowledge on How to Impress a Hipster then you’ll love the “open ended instruction booklet on how to have the best life ever” that Awesome All Day provides. We agreed that Awesome All Day should write a post on something they know a lot about.
With the recent creation of the “Activities” section on How to Impress a Hipster they knew that a write up on fashion shows was exactly what needed to be done. So thank you Awesome All Day for this insightful and hilariously truthful breakdown of Fashion Shows. To my readers…enjoy and get on over to Awesome All Day to brighten up your day with highly entertaining and always funny approaches to living a fulfilled life!
Why they’re hipster approved: All hipsters, no matter how much they may deny it, are interested in style and ultimately fashion. Although it may seem like many of them are preparing for one every night before going out, the fashion show is a special occasion that provides the hipster with a chance to flaunt their personal style. Kind of like the Olympics for people who wear neckerchiefs, fashion shows combine several important hipster traditions: wearing improbable yet stylish attire, partying, and girls with less than 6% body fat. They usually feature a few local designers, one or two local vintage/indy boutiques, and if you’re lucky a DJ who’s smart enough to avoid playing anything from the Kitsuné roster. To a hipster, what you wear is as important as what you read/ watch/ or listen to, so most will go out of their way to attend.
What hipsters won’t admit: Almost nobody ever makes any money off these things, so it’s a little bit like the hipster-equivalent of playing dress-up.
How to impress a hipster: Designers and boutiques are always looking for models who are willing to work for free. If you’re even remotely attractive, strutting your stuff on the runway is an awesome way to get instant credibility. If you’re not model material, attend with someone who is. That way you don’t have to pay the cover. Who knows? You might snag some complimentary champagne or rub shoulders (amongst other things) with a model/ artist/ designer all of which are infinitely cooler than the fashionably inept at the front door.
